$, also known as Dollars and in the UK The Heist, is a 1971 caper film made by Columbia Pictures. It was written and directed by Richard Brooks and produced by M.J. Frankovich.
The film stars Goldie Hawn, Warren Beatty with Gert Fröbe, Robert Webber and Scott Brady.
It was filmed in Hamburg, Malibu and Sweden.
Plot
The film's title appears in the opening credits only in the form of a giant character, as would be used in a sign, being transported by a crane.
Beatty is an employee of a large bank in Hamburg, West Germany. He plots with a hooker with a heart of gold, played by Hawn, to rob the safe deposit boxes of the bank.
The building depicted from the exterior as the bank was really the Kunsthalle, Hamburg's principal museum of art. The route followed in the chase scenes takes the viewer through many of the city's unique locales and actually "makes sense" on a map, though it would exceed the endurance of most humans.
